Answer:

Use 3 times as many boxes of rice

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Using proportion

\frac{4}{13}\frac{boxes}{people}=\frac{x}{39}\frac{boxes}{people} \\ \\x=39*4/13\\ \\x=12\ boxes

original quantity of boxes ----->  4

boxes needed ----->  12

12=3*(4)

therefore

Use 3 times as many boxes of rice

What is the volume of a sphere with a radius of 5.9 in, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic inch?
Lynna [10]

\textit{volume of a sphere}\\\\ V=\cfrac{4\pi r^3}{3}~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ r=5.9 \end{cases}\implies V=\cfrac{4\pi (5.9)^3}{3}\implies V\approx 860.3~in^3

The dashed-line triangle is a dilation image of the solid-lined triangle.
Gre4nikov [31]
Refer to the edited figure.

Triangles ABC and A'B'C' are similar because of AAA.
Also,
\frac{AB}{A'B'}= \frac{15}{5}=3 \\\\  \frac{AC}{A'C'}= \frac{12}{4}=3

Therefore
ΔA'B'C' is 1/3 the size of ΔABC.
This means that the scale factor from ΔABC to ΔA'B'C' is a 3-factor reduction.

Answer:   reduction; one-third.
The dilation is a reduction.
The scale factor of the dilation is one-third.
